Employment Law

This one-day course provides Managers, Directors, HR professionals & Employee Reps with an up to date working knowledge of the latest employment laws

Policies, procedures, help lines, manuals and the internet can provide useful information on how to respond to a given situation but they should be seen as a tools that build on, or supplement, a strong understanding of employment legislation rather than an alternative to it; in many workplace situations an immediate response or action is needed, one that cannot wait for further research to be undertaken.

No company, business or organisation can afford to experience dispute, industrial action, or employment tribunals because management or staff failed to understand and follow legislation and good practice. It is equally important that those involved with apprenticeship programmes or delivering training on employment law understand how the latest changes impact on Apprentices, employees and employers alike.

This one-day workshop explores and highlights the key points from the latest statute and case law bringing participants up to date on the key legislation, latest changes and pending developments

The workshop also updates participants on the latest legislation and provides the very latest assessment what areas to monitor for future changes. For example; informed speculation based on government impact assessment statements for post Brexit and a phrase within one about the need to ‘maximise regulatory opportunities’ suggests a relaxation of workers’ protections, particularly around working hours, rest breaks and annual leave may be under consideration.

For WhomThis workshop provides an intensive and essential update on the latest developments in Employment Law, Employment Rights & Responsibilities for Directors, Operational Managers, HR Professionals, Trade Union and Employee Representatives from all types of business.

It is also useful for those tasked with explaining, teaching or training of employment rights and responsibilities to others.
